Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Pentre
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Pentre
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for these signs:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Pentre
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
